Semua Bab The Heartbreak Prescription: Bab 1141 - Bab 1150

"What is it?" Ivy asked.Wanda took out a pregnancy test stick. "It's a pregnancy test."Ivy paused. "A pregnancy test?"Wanda said, "I noticed you've been unusually sleepy these past few days, and your appetite hasn't been great. Based on my experience, there's a good chance you're pregnant. You can use this test for a preliminary check."Wanda had come with a mission. Not only had Ivy and Nathan been living together these days, but Wanda had also adjusted Ivy's meals to include ingredients believed to support fertility. Ivy and Nathan were young and had a healthy lifestyle. Pregnancy was perfectly normal.In truth, Ivy herself had been waiting for the results these past couple of days. She just hadn't expected Wanda to notice it first.Ivy reached out and took the test. "Thank you. I'll go test it inside."She got out of bed and went into the bathroom to take the test.The wait was only one minute, but to Ivy, that minute felt endless. She clasped her hands together and sil

The earlier sense of ease turned heavy again. Ivy remembered that she still had to face Nathan, and she couldn't predict what he would do.He would definitely be angry. Furious, even.Still, the child she was carrying was Keith's precious great-grandson. With Keith backing her up, there was no real need to be so nervous.Thinking it through like that, Ivy felt lighter again."Mr. Lowe left early this morning. Do you want to call him and share the good news?" Wanda asked.Ivy shook her head. "Don't tell him about the pregnancy yet. I'll find the right moment and tell him myself."Wanda replied, "Alright.""I'll head to work after breakfast.""I know you still want to work even though you're pregnant, but you should cut back a bit. From now on, everything comes second to the baby."Ivy placed her hand over her lower abdomen. "Don't worry. I'm the baby's mother. No one is looking forward to his arrival more than I am."-Nathan had been busy at the office all day. He had cleare

Of course, Ivy had to dodge Nathan. She was pregnant now, and during the early stages of pregnancy, she couldn't sleep with him.To be honest, she hadn't even thought about intimacy yet. Before, as long as she didn't take the initiative, Nathan wouldn't either.She hadn't expected him to suddenly want to shower together tonight.Ivy still hadn't figured out how to tell him about the pregnancy, so she could only turn him down gently. "I just got home. I want to take a shower first."Nathan looked at her fresh, makeup-free face. His hand tightened as he pulled her closer. "You don't want to shower with me? Have you forgotten how you used to cling to me? Or are you playing hard to get now?"Ivy was instantly speechless. Heaven knew she was absolutely not playing hard to get."I'm not," she said quickly, afraid he would start suspecting something. Her hand rested on his silk pajamas. "People say couples need to keep a little distance sometimes, or things lose their spark. If I shower

Maybe Ivy's gaze lingered on Nathan's face a little too long. Nathan curled his lips slightly and asked with a half-smile, "Why are you staring at me like that?"Ivy snapped back to herself and said sincerely, "Thank you."He hadn't asked a single question, but he understood exactly what kind of situation she was in.Nathan said, "We're husband and wife. If someone messes with you, they're messing with me. If something like this happens again, you can tell me. Or if there's something you want me to do for you, I'll do it as long as it doesn't cross the line." Warmth spread through Ivy's chest. "What counts as crossing the line?""Illegal stuff. Things that break the rules," Nathan replied. Ivy was speechless. She honestly hadn't expected such a serious answer. After all, she was a law-abiding citizen, too.Ivy found herself smiling. "Are you saying that as long as it's legal and proper, you'll agree to any request I make?""You can try asking next time and see," Nathan said.

Nathan didn't get out of bed. He pulled Ivy closer into his arms. In truth, his internal clock had already woken him up around six. With Ivy asleep against him, warm and soft, he hadn't wanted to move.Nathan looked at her flushed lips. "Tired?"Ivy knew exactly what he meant. "Not at all."Nathan reached out and brushed his thumb over her lips. "You've got a little spot here where the skin's broken."Ivy shot him a mock glare. "That's your fault. Don't pretend you've got nothing to do with this."Nathan curved his lips indulgently. "Alright. My bad."The air grew a little charged. Ivy stared straight at him. "What are you still doing in bed?"Nathan raised a brow instead of answering. "What do you think?"Ivy smiled, her hand landing on his abs and sliding lower. "Who knows what you're thinking?"Nathan's throat tightened, heat flashing instantly in his eyes.Ivy laughed. "I just realized you're really good at pretending.""What do you mean?" Nathan asked."You always lo
